Stem cell technologies are a rapidly developing field that combines the efforts of cell biologists, geneticists, and clinicians and offers hope of effective treatment for a variety of malignant and non-malignant diseases.
Rob Dunn has recently published Never Out of Season, the story of the homogenization of our global food supply and the risks that homogenization poses. He will build on the stories from this...
The immune system is complex and dynamic, focused on defending the body from a host of pathogens ranging from viruses to cancer. A number of different mechanisms have evolved that help the bo...
Virus – host interactions are currently among the most intensively studied research areas due to the promising new antiviral approaches emerging from these studies. Indeed, RNA viruses,...
Increasing prevalence and severity of multi-drug-resistant (MDR) bacterial infections has necessitated novel antibacterial strategies. Ideally, new approaches would target bacterial pat...
Prokaryotes have long been at war with bacteriophage. The evolutionary pressure of this struggle has led both sides to develop sophisticated defenses. Notably, CRISPR-Cas systems evolved to l...
Adjunct probiotic therapy has the potential to decrease Clostridium difficile disease incidence and severity. After screening several potential probiotic bacteria for intrinsic resistance to...

The availability of well-characterised monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) detecting cell-surface epitopes on human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) provides useful research tools to investigate the c...
Research on human brain development and neurological diseases is limited by the lack of advanced experimental in vitro models that truly recapitulate the complexity of the human brain. Here, ...
Regenerative medicine therapeutics aimed at restoring normal cell function due to trauma and disease are gaining increasing momentum in clinical trials. For this purpose, lentivirus-based gen...
As reprogramming methodologies have become more reliable and efficient, corresponding improvements were needed in the characterization workflow as well; specifically in terms of the speed, ef...
The emergence of technology for development of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) from somatic cells, such as skin and blood cells, has resulted in the ability of researchers to have limi...
Does your PSC medium support cell therapy? In this webinar, learn about Cell Therapy Systems™ (CTS™) Essential 8™ Medium, a feeder-free pluripotent stem cell (PSC) medium th...

Healthcare is becoming more proactive and data-rich than anything before possible – and will increasingly focus on maintaining and enhancing wellness more than just reacting to disease....
Cell growth and regulation involve vast networks of interacting DNAs, RNAs, proteins, lipids and sugars. Through a fundamental strategy of life, these interactions push multiple cellular proc...
In this era of precision molecular medicine, knowledge changes rapidly and is highly dispersed. Physicians and patients are faced with conflicting expert opinions and a shortage of acti...
Despite vast investment for decades in cancer research and development, cancer is still among the leading causes of death worldwide and its toll is expected to rise by about 70% over the next...
Clinical whole genome sequencing (cWGS) is rapidly gaining acceptance as cost is decreasing and success rates in identifying disease-causing variants are increasing. While the application of...
Although there have been enormous advances in gene sequencing, the results give massive amounts of data that only point to disease risk. Major health factors, including diet, lifestyle, envir...
Psychiatric disorders are among the leading causes of disability worldwide. One fifth of the population will suffer from a psychiatric disorder in their lifetime. Antipsychotic and antidepres...
Liquid Biopsies are gaining acceptance in the Oncology community as a surrogate or complement to the gold standard of tissue biopsy. A liquid biopsy provides biomarker information that...
